Byee..


Well... I've spent a couple of days learning it, and I think that it has a big future...

Waht I most like about it, is that it's fully OO, and that you have nearly all that you need in a single package: Templates, OOR mapping, Unit tests, MVC Famework... etc..

My problem whit many languages/framework, for example php (what I like very much anyway) is that you have to learn PHP, then Smarty, Then EZDBO, then an MVC Framework, then..,then,,,,then,,,,
